Oceanspray (not for BOM)

[burn em up chuck]

 for my b-day my better half signed me up for a John Strunk bow class. i told John i wanted to try and get some pointers on building sapling bows. i picked a 1" diam. oceanspray. i also built a bow from vinemaple but thats for another time. the oceanspray ended up 65" long,64"ntn,43#@ 25". i'm very pleased w/the performance of this seamingly small stick.
 most excellent class w/John Strunk great teacher. Thank You John.

nice looking tiller! oceanspray is kinda surprising, isn't it?

i spent a day with John in April! that day completely changed the way i think about building bows. he inspierd me to bring home some oceanspray. now that i've seen yours, i can't wait to start carving it up!

Well done, tiller looks good, and I like the coloring on the back.  Why not for BOM?

   Very nice bow, I don't think a better bow wood exists than ocean spray, just wish it grew bigger and straighter. Steve
